Re: CLI

There is an even easier answer. Don't use service names. Just enter the same (unused) service number in both the sqlhosts on the server and in the CLI setup. You don't have to have sys admin access to get connectivity with Informix. You may also have to create a .rhosts file on the server under the home directory of the logon used by CLI. In this file enter the host name (or IP) of the desktop and give this file the permissions of 600 and the owner should be the owner of the home directory.
